"The association of trumpeter Magnus Broo with the Sten Sandell Trio was very much intended and searched for, giving continuity to another partnership in quartet: the one with John Butcher heard in the album "Strokes". But something wasn't planned: the use of a Hammond B-3 organ. The instrument was laying in a corner of the recording studio and Sandell decided on the spot to use it as his main keyboard. With one particularity: he never played a Hammond before. Of course, the music changed radically; not only we feel Broo's influence in all the developments, as the peculiar characteristics of the organ determined a kind of approach rather different from anything done previously by the Sten Sandell Trio. And that's why "Never Forgotten, Always Remembered" is credited to a new band, The Godforgottens. And what a band, reuniting great virtuosos (along with Broo and Sandell, bassist Johan Berthling and drummer Paal Nilssen-Love) who don't choose the easiest way - to exhibit their skills for the egotist pleasure of it. They also have in common the gathering in their musical languages of several stylistic influences, going from classical contemporary music to experimental rock, the axis being hard bop and free jazz. The resulting music is quite a surprise! When you think you've heard everything, here is a CD coming directly from creativity land."-Clean Feed Records

He also worked with folkmusicist and songwriter Nicolai Dunger ( roasting och herren , 2007)." ^ Hide Bio for Johan Berthling • Show Bio for Paal Nilssen-Love "Paal Nilssen-Love was born in Molde, Norway, Dec 24. 1974, and raised at a jazz club in Stavanger, run by his parents. It was natural to choose his fathers drums as his instrument and jazz as his work. From 1990 on he took actively part in the jazz milieu in Stavanger and joined bands with established musicians such as trumpeter Didrik Ingvaldsen and saxophonist Frode Gjerstad. In many ways, these collaborations were essential as they pointed out the directions for Paal's later musical development and career. During his studies at the Jazz dept at the University in Trondheim, where the first self initiated bands were established, things developed really fast - and Paal was nationally acknowledged at the age of 20. The forming of the quartet Element in 1993 in many ways represented the start of a new phase in Paal's musical life. Element musically became a platform for several other groups with bassist Flaten and pianist Wiik, and lead to collaborations with Iain Ballamy and Chris Potter, amongst others. Paal moved to Oslo in 1996, where he joined and/or took part in the forming of bands like Vindaloo, SAN, Håkon Kornstad Tio, The Quintet and Frode Gjerstad Trio. He later on got more into self initiated projects and collaborations with Swedish musicians, such as pianist Sten Sandell and saxophonist Mats Gustafsson. Paal played his first solo concert in 1999, and since then the solo concept has been an important part of his work: "Everyone should try doing some solo work, just to feel who you really are and what gets you going". His solo album "Sticks and stones" was put out in 2001 on SOFA Rec. Being active in several bands at the same time has always been Paal's deliberate working method. He is constantly conscious about the projects he is in, as his participation in each and one of them is fully dedicated. Playing is not about getting from start to goal, but rather being in an everlasting process, a continuous movement where each new piece of music performed is a prolongation of the latest. Hence, keeping focused and concentrating all energy around what's happening there and then is of greatest importance - as is the freedom in the music, the ability of being free within the expression. All bands, although various styles and musical versatility in general, represent important pieces that make up a total, and all bands are formed or joined with a clear vision. Today Paal's portfolio includes Atomic, School Days, The Thing, Frode Gjerstad Trio, Sten Sandell Trio, Scorch Trio, Territory Band, FME, and various duo projects such as with reedmen Ken Vandermark, John Butcher, Mats Gustafsson, organist Nils Henrik Asheim and noise wizard Lasse Marhaug. And not to forget the recently joined Peter Brötzmann Chicago Tentet." ^ Hide Bio for Paal Nilssen-Love
